Goodnight from him

Ronnie Barker has died :-(

ETA: Surfing around, there are various links to best lines and memories, but this made me cry laughing: "Still remember my father's horrified face as Ronnie Barker and Corbett, dressed as Mandarins, sang "Over China, over China, over China - Town". I was JUST old enough to realised that this was very naughty indeed."

That's sad and unexpected news. I didn't think that he was all that old.

76... which I don't think of as particularly old.
